"The events in Georgia paradoxically took place in the month of August, just like in the former Czechoslovakia 40 years ago, when my country too was invaded and occupied for many a long year by the Soviet Army. Fellow Members, we must not forget that Russia has shown by its actions that it has not put its past behind it. Just as in 1968, it has not hesitated to send in tanks to achieve its political goals. Once again military force is destabilising countries which are trying to free themselves from Russian influence. Today it is Georgia, tomorrow it could be Ukraine. I am convinced that the EU must be even more resolute in its opposition to Russia’s stance with regard to recognition of the independence of Abkhazia and South Ossetia. I am convinced that the EU’s response must be to intensify cooperation with Georgia and especially with Ukraine, not only with words but also by clear and meaningful actions."@en1
